Wenger - My outside tip for Champions League
Bayern Munich are Arsène Wenger’s outsiders for Champions League glory.
The draw for Europe’s top competition was made last week. Arsenal were placed with Dynamo Kiev, Fenerbache and Porto in a tough-looking Group G.
Wenger came closest to lifting the Champions League trophy in 2006. When the Frenchman was asked to tip his winner this season he went for the ‘big guns’ with one notable outsider.
“There’s the usual English teams, the two big Spanish teams and you could add Inter Milan this year maybe,” he said. “They have experience and a massive squad now. They will be difficult to beat.
“But if you want an outsider in there then maybe Bayern Munich. They were not in the Champions League last year. They did not win the Uefa Cup. So there has been a bit less certainty for them recently.”
